Signage | point design

signage.

Really there are two ways sign makers nowadays go about their work. They either use vinyl or large format printers which print in UV stable inks in full colour direct or on to a self adhesive sticker and then apply to material .

Good premium vinyl can last 10-12 years before fading however whilst there is a big range of colours, it can still be limited. If you want to incorporate an image or cannot find a vinyl to match then large format is the option lasting 3-5 years before fading commences pending how much direct sun is exposed to.

What is incredible now with large format is the range of different materials and applications with a selected few sign makers being able to print white down as a base. I've seen amazing artwork on wood and the heads in these good machines can also reach depths enough to print directly on say a door, corrugation metal. Then there are fabric printing for flags, trestle tables but also some incredible tent like configuration structures that a car could fit under. What is coming out of Europe is amazing great for expos, and product launches - stay tuned.

From a design point of view there is a great scope for us to work with and get creative.

Here are just a few examples of various signage we have produced.

There was no close vinyl for the beige so we got the 3 mm acrylic printed. Whilst the flat beds can match the colour pretty close to a pms colour, it is always best to run a test sample as each machine does have a different set of profiles.
In the end this ensured the colour was spot on, and this sign was a combination of 3mm acrylic and vinyl cut lettering to create a bit of depth. The Origin logo required a super fine router bit to get the outer circle to look as good as we had designed it. If you don't go to a sign writer that puts that extra care into their work they can convince you that the spacing needs to increase and the logo can get jeopardised. We have a great relationship with our sign writers, they know I don't compromise on quality, and if I think it is going to be a problem I bring it to their attention before. One thing you also have to be mindful of is the depth of the acrylic, they come in 3,5,10mm as standard but the thicker you go the more you have to be careful of the drop shadow it leaves. It can add too much depth and make lettering hard to read.

New development signage, the big 6x3m road sign and 1.2x1.2mm lot signs. These are big lots so the lot signs need to be bigger than normal and the big sign was on a busy road. We used bold colours to grab attention whilst including lifestyle images to relate too. We evaluated the traffic flow and also produced some directional signs as well as a stage plan sign with a weather proof
brochure holder affixed to it for people to grab the brochure, stage plan, after hours.

Wild Cards & Gift

This booth was designed to be used to attract new franchise owners. We decided to create a tile arrangement which was not only easy to store inside the multi purpose display unit (doubles up as a counter display as well) but also this design would be easy to amend for updates.

Love this, the introduction of the cute animals has kids pointing to it, which in turn gets the attention of the parent. In general though, great to promote the variety of animals that they treat, which is accompanied with the illustrations. Showing the diversity of other animals was very important and this does it nicely.

As I said previously, mobile signage is such a great way to draw attention especially when it looks like the door is open and a fire inside! Playing off the medieval knight we photo shopped the door open and a fire forging in this case a key. It was very successful, came runner up van display of the year which many questioned why it didn't actually win.

Clever use of the ball position on the petrol cap. Car signage is a effective mobile form of advertising.

This turned out great but not easy to combine multiple services without it appearing too busy.

The funny thing about this was previously I had a little bit of signage on my front doors and this matched my minimalistic brand but and this is when you have to sometimes think out of the box, this look didn't sell that I do car signage. So my designers blinged it up to the max and at first we laughed as I don't like bling but it actually grew on me and the positive comments I have had and work from it is amazing. (Just have to not cut in front of anyone, which I don't anyway.)
